Re: [Coworking] Credit Card Processors and Gateways

Yes you have to re-input their CC info into the new system. if you ask
Authorize to send those existing subscribers to another gateway you'd have
to pay. However, Stripe gives this flexibility should you decide to leave
them and help you with the process.

I would be careful with handling user CCs as it may trigger PCI non
compliance.

Hi,

Try to add a prefix such as user+@opencoworking.org
 it should automatically work. Most email providers
support such set up. This way you don't have to setup multiple email
addresses. I highly recommend http://fastmail.fm

Hi Brian,

I recommend staying away from Authorize. You could be be stuck with them,
and if you decide to move to another gateway they may ask you to pay in

Re: [Coworking] Projector VS TV/ LED Screens

2018-08-21 Thread Jerome Chang
I'll add on to what Alex said: most of how people will use your projectors
is for displaying text, or screenshots, which will require larger projected
images than what most people use projectors for which is graphics or, say,
movies. Therefore, an 8' diagonal image will seem huge, but not for seeing
text, icons, and menus from the back row.

As for tv's vs. projectors...I'm on the fence and kind of agree w/ Caner.
Maybe you can get 60-65" screens for 6-8 ppl at a decent cost, and forego
the projectors...until the 70" screens come down in price.

We have a conference room with a 50 inch LED and a 120 inch projector
screen and overhead and the overhead never gets used. The fact you can buy
a 55 inch for under $400 and a 60 inch for under $700 tells me to go with
the LED.

Re: [Coworking] Projector VS TV/ LED Screens

2018-08-21 Thread Alex Hillman
TVs are great for meeting rooms - they're almost always on sale. I think we
got 42" TVs for our meeting rooms for like...$250/each.

But TV's but aren't great for groups larger than 8-10 peopleunless
you're buying giant 70" TVs, which generally start at more than $1500 each
to get decent quality.

With projectors, the thing to look out for is the lumens. A lot of cheap
projectors only work in rooms that are dark, and in most presentation
settings you want something that can be seen easily without turning off all
of the lights. We upgraded our primary presentation space earlier this year
and I ended up finding this gem for less than $600 US. It's super bright
(3200 lumens), and has amazing picture quality:

Also with a projector, you *definitely* want to project onto a real screen.
Early on we had white walls so I figured we could just project onto them
but the picture quality was almost always distorted (especially for any
kind of text). Screens aren't just white, they're also *smooth* and
*reflective* which improves how bright the picture appears, and makes sure
that nothing gets distorted.

If you are not after a very big screen size go with a LED screen.

Just to make sure I understand the question, are you trying to get interest
from your existing members, or from new prospective members (or both)?

[Coworking] Hosting a feedback session

2018-08-21 Thread Carly Seltzer
Hello Everyone, I am currently working on the planning phases of a 
expansion of our current coworking space, The Forge and have been hosting 
some small feedback events but I can't seem to get more people interested 
in coming to see the potential of the space. I was wondering if there are 
any tips that someone with a bit more experience can offer me. 

Thanks in advance 
Carly
